Vox's Ezra Klein explains what will happen if Democrats win
[American Thinker] For over 180 years, the Senate has relied on the filibuster to prevent the tyranny of the majority. This forced Senators to work things out rather than to ride roughshod over each other. Democrats should be especially aware of the filibuster’s virtues, given that their decision to do away with the filibuster for Supreme Court nominations means they cannot stop Amy Coney Barrett nomination. Despite that, Democrats still want to do away with the filibuster entirely. Ezra Klein, at Vox, explains why: Democrats have a long list of hard-left initiatives that they can achieve only by bulldozing them through with the smallest possible majority.To his credit, Klein is open about the Democrats’ need to end the filibuster if Biden gets the White House and a Democrat Congress: Posted by: Besoeker 2020-10-03 |
